This kit allows to interconnect one NEVE V series preamp module and one equalizer module to put them into a Rack.
The kit also allows to connect inputs, outputs and power supply necessary for the use of the set.
The PSU bus system allows to connect up to 8 modules (4 preamp and EQ pairs) rather arranged vertically.
This bus also allows to wire the side chain function of the compressors / gates.
It connects the inputs, outputs and power supply needed to use the unit by minimizing the wiring perform.
Adding an optional High impedance Instrument input is provided to the kit.
The "plug and play" design of this kit is usefull to verify the proper operation of modules before moving on to the racking.
Possibilities provided by this kit.
o Configurable position of dynamics, equaliser and insertion.
o Provision for 2 LED and analogue VU meter drivers.
o Planned installation of a high-impedance instrument input following the path of the microphone preamp via its input transformer.
o Addition of a rotary fader
Positioning dynamics, Equalizer and insert
4 modes for matrixing dynamics, Equalizer and Insertion:
§ Standard
The audio path passes through the dynamics, the equaliser and the insert.
The PREQ button on the equaliser module places the insert at the beginning of the chain.
§ Swap
This mode swaps the position of the dynamics and the equaliser.
The PREQ button on the equalizer module places the Insert at the start of the chain.
§ Mid
This mode places the insert between the dynamics and the equaliser.
The PREQ button on the equaliser module is not used.
§ Mid and Swap together
This mode places the insert between the equaliser and the dynamics.
The PREQ button on the equalizer module is not used.
Various signal display options are available:
§ Display of input or output signal via LED meter.
§ LED display to indicate presence of signal or overload.
§ Display of input or output signal via analog vumeter.
§ Display of gain reduction via two-colour LED (V3 Sig/LC LED).
§ 8 LED gain reduction display (VR DLX LED)
Standard LED DLX LED
Optional features
§ An adjustable threshold signal and overload detector on the Input card.
§ An LED vumeter driver on the EQ board.
§ An analogue vumeter driver on the EQ card.
§ A gain reduction led bi-colour V3 measurement system (Sig/LC plug-in card).
§ An 8-LED gain reduction measurement system VR type (DLX plug-in card).
§ A high-impedance input with FET transistors on the Input card.
§ Possibility of adding an output fader/potentiometer to the EQ card.
